Slazenger Challenge No. 1

This racquet, the Slazenger Challenge No.1, is one of the finest examples of wood crafting you may ever see in a tennis racquet. This racquet uses soft rounded edges throughout the shaft and head. This contrasts with the Wilson approach that used sharper contours.

The thicker throat overlay transitions into the thin head hoop which I think lends to the maneuverability of this pretty heavy racquet.

Margaret Court AO, MBE, also known as Margaret Smith Court, is a retired World No. 1 professional tennis player and Christian minister from Australia. – Wikipedia
